      The compiler options are categorized as pre-processor options, options for math intrinsics,
      options that control optimization and miscellaneous options. This specification defines
      a standard set of options that must be supported by the OpenCL C compiler when building
      program executables online or offline. These may be extended by a set of vendor- or
      platform specific options.
    </p><h4><a id="id-1.6.6"></a>Preprocessor Options</h4><p>
      These options control the OpenCL C preprocessor which is run on each program source before
      actual compilation.
    </p><p>
      -D options are processed in the order they are given in the options argument to
      <code class="function">clBuildProgram</code> or or <code class="function">clCompileProgram</code>.
